Hi! I’m Gail Nobles and this is the third episode about REV105/Revolution Radio. A very special radio station that was one the air in the 90’s that played a fairly wide variety of music, mostly alternative rock, and put a lot of time into promoting music from local performers.

I’m still seeing the name of the radio station and hearing about it online. At Mixccloud.com, there is a guy by the name of DJ Kevin Cole that celebrated REV 105 for National Radio Day on KEXP. It was like hearing the radio station all over again when he put on Patsy Cline’s country song “Crazy” released in 1961.

(Singing)

That song is a classic. It puts me in a certain kind of mood. Patsy was encouraged by her producer to take risks in her singing with pauses, sighs, and lingering over her words. It added emotional power to the lyrics according to an essay by Douglass Gomery.

You might wonder why DJ Kevin started with Patsy Cline’s song on Mixcloud. REV 105’s eclectic new alternative rock format took to the air with the first official song being “Crazy” by Patsy Cline. If you listen to KEXP’s Kevin Cole (REV 105 Program Director), you can learn more about the REV 105 and some of the people that were involved with the station. Just click on the link below in this podcast. Look for the Mixcloud link.
